The Small Screen Diaries: The Weekly Rankings

Once again I’m running down the sixty shows on my broad watchlist. Joining the list this week, which was fairly slow for new shows, are The Sandman (Netflix), All Of Us Are Dead (Netflix), The Office (Peacock), Such Brave Girls (Hulu), Nautilus (AMC Plus), Dexter (Paramount Plus), and Prison Break (Netflix). I wrapped some shows, and anything that would rank outside the top 60 dies. WINNER: Squid Game (Netflix) with audio description- I knew I was going to lose my favorites. After the tragic uprising didn’t work last season, it meant playing out Squid Game till the end. I’m only … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries: The Weekly Rankings

Magazine Dreams

It’s a cautionary tale. Certainly before we have seen actors skirt awards recognition, only to have their hopes dashed when it turns out they have a deep dark horrible secret. Kevin Spacey was edited out of All The Money in The World, and replaced by Christopher Plummer, who went on to get an Oscar nomination. Shia labeouf watched his pieces Of A Woman co-star Vanessa Kirby land a nomination, but his chances fell off the map. I should say, Spacey has since been cleared of all charges, and labeouf is still working.But the awards chance came and went. That’s the … Continue reading Magazine Dreams

Going In Blind: The Year So Far: July Edition

In my third edition of how the year is going so far, I’m now up to 181 titles released in 2025 (to the best of my knowledge). I have seen some films that have yet to secure distribution from film festivals, so they could be later titles. For now, I remain optimistic. Some big titles I still need to see include F1, M3gan 2.0, Friendship, Elio, and Mission Impossible: Final reckoning. Just to name a few. the Top 15 Films of The Year So Far: Deaf President Now Tornado the Parenting Lavender Men Sinners The Assessment the Amateur The ruse … Continue reading Going In Blind: The Year So Far: July Edition

The Legend Of Ochi

A24 once again steps foot into the world of animation with the lackluster Legend of ochi, which takes a familiar concept, and attempts to put an A24 spin on things. I think the A24 worship is a little silly, given the fact that they are just a distribution studio, and a film like this, which is fairly generic and not terribly indicative of their artistic lean, examine why “A24 vibes” goes only as far as it can. This is A24, and it doesn’t have A24 vibes. The story revolves around this fantastical creature, the Ochi, which is a little like … Continue reading The Legend Of Ochi

Drop

What is the worst date you’ve ever been on? if you want to feel better about that, Meghann Fahy gets a doozy in Drop, the new Blumhouse thriller from Christopher Landon (happy Death Day). Blumhouse typically works with horror films, but this is a tight thriller, using time and limited locations to drive the story. It also does have audio description, and considering the clues you’ll be picking up, I’d highly recommend using it. Fahy plays a single mother raising her son mostly on her own, with occasional help from her sister (violet Bean). She has been talking online with … Continue reading Drop

The Small Screen Diaries- The Weekly Rankings

I’m going to start trying to not have more than 60 active shows. Honestly, that is a lot of TV shows on an active watchlist. Not always does every show have new episodes. Joining this week are several heavy hitters including Iron Heart (Disney Plus), Squid Game (Netflix), The Bear (Hulu), Smoke (Apple Plus), and Countdown (Amazon). A few shows reached the end of their seasons as denoted below. WINNER: Hacks (MAX)- Finishing on top. I can’t wait to see where they take this show next season, and I’m really pulling for an Emmy win for Hannah Einbinder in Supporting … Continue reading The Small Screen Diaries- The Weekly Rankings
